I'm not sure what a "navy snap" is but the correct term for a standard snap fastener on most boat tops is called a "Dot Fastener snap".
There are basically three parts of a Dot fastener,...cap, socket and stud. All have the same diameter and the only difference would be the required length of the stem on the cap which is determined by the thickness of material you are applying them to. Most stem lengths are 1/4".
